The DC Dispensary
About The DC Dispensary
Anchored at 555 13th St NW in Northwest Washington, this downtown shop carries 769 reviews and a 4.7 rating. The location sits within blocks of Metro Center, the Treasury building, and the federal office district, making it one of the few cannabis options inside the central business core. Customer feedback splits into two camps. Positive reviews highlight kind staff, easy text-based ordering, and quality on house premium pre-rolls, with one disabled veteran specifically calling out a helpful experience. Less flattering reviews describe online inventory that does not match what is actually available in store, and wait times that can stretch past an hour during busy windows. Hours run 9 AM to 10 PM Monday through Thursday, extend to 11 PM Friday and Saturday, and close at 9 PM Sunday. For downtown workers, hotel guests, and visitors near the Metro Center, Gallery Place, or Penn Quarter area, the location is the main draw. Confirm stock before driving over.

Customer Reviews
Extremely kind and helpful staff, easy texting back and forth, really smooth system
They answered the call right away and were very helpful selecting items and placing the order
Absolutely terrible experience. I would not recommend this place to anyone unless you are wanting to be lied to repeatedly. The inventory that the dispensary has online is not accurate, and they will make you wait for over an hour!
I don’t remember who helped me but as a disabled vet with PTSD the house premium pre rolls were great and the product was exceptionally great. Good vibes and I’ll be back again
Besides the fact that I didn’t see the cash payment only, they provided extremely friendly and gracious help and I’m so grateful. 6/5 stars, definitely shop here!
